Video: Star Wars dubbed with the voices of Chris Tucker and Ice Cube is absolutely hilarious

Darth Vader just got more bad ass...

Darth Vader just got more bad ass…

JOE will never hide our undying love for all things Star Wars and the geek levels in JOE towers have gone into a hyperdrive with all the latest news about the upcoming Episode VII: The Rise of Jedi JOE (we’re still trying to convince to J.J. Abrams to use that title).

We can’t wait to see a 94 year old Luke Skywalker back in action, however, there will always be a large Death Star-sized part of our hearts devoted to the old-school trilogy.

We have probably seen the films 7,347 times now, but this fantastic mashup parody of Episode IV: A New Hope and 1995 stoner buddy comedy film Friday has given us a whole new appreciation.

The lines spoken by Darth Vader have been dubbed over by the voice of Deebo (Tommy “Tiny” Lister) and various Stormtroopers have been given the voices of Smokey (Chris Tucker) and Craig Jones (Ice Cube).

Set phasers to stunned… no, wait, that’s not the right sci-fi franchise. Cue Darth Vader instantly choking us with the force.
